  • The US government doesn’t want an adversary government to have the data of its citizens (because of varios reasons, including mass manipulation for example). They would of course have no issue with having that data themselves though (also because then they would be more in control over how the data is handled).












  • Your honour, our client can’t have intent because they’re demonstrably criminally insane, we know because we caused that insanity". Not in that many words, but to that effect.

    That’s completely made up, either by you or by another person. What they actually say is that Israel’s intent is to defend against the armed attacks of the Hamas, not to commit a genocide.

    More like: “Your honor, our client is just trying to defend themselves, they are not doing this to commit a genocide”




  • A 3rd party votes subtracts one vote from Biden’s total vote count, so to say. Here is the 1M$ math equation you desire (assuming you would usually vote for Biden):

    Definitions:

    (I) VoteDifference = VotesTrump - VotesBiden

    (II) VotesBiden1 = EveryoneElsesVotes + YourVote (Scenario where you vote for Biden)

    (III) VotesBiden2 = EveryoneElsesVotes (Scenario where you vote for a 3rd party)

    Calculations:

    (II) VotesBiden1 = EveryoneElsesVotes + Yourvote =〉VotesBiden1 - YourVote = EveryoneElsesVotes (III) VotesBiden2 = EveryoneElsesVotes =〉VotesBiden1 - YourVote = VotesBiden2

    (I) VoteDifference = VotesTrump - VotesBiden

    VoteDifference1 = VotesTrump - VotesBiden1 VoteDifference2 = VotesTrump - VotesBiden2

    =〉VoteDifference2 = VotesTrump - (VotesBiden1 - Yourvote) =〉VoteDifference2 = VotesTrump + YourVote - VotesBiden1 (!!!)

    THUS WE CONCLUDE:

    In scenario 2 (which is the one in which you vote for a 3rd party), the vote difference (which determines who won and by how much), is EQUIVALENT to one additional person voting for Trump. You’re welcome. I don’t even need the 1.000.000$.

    Why should only the minorities that excel deserve a good life?

    The guy just said “If you excel at something, you will be happy and less stressed” and you are seriously asking why only people that are happy deserve to be so? They didnt even claim that anything SHOULD be any particular way, they just said that the goal of being happy in the end is an aim worth persuing.

    Let people be mediocre and instead we need to make life better for everyone.

    You cant just magically make people healthier or less stressed or happier. If the other person had said “Health is a good reason why you should start working out” would you also respond with:

    Why should only the minorities that excel [work out] deserve a good life?
